...me too! Conan is better suited for the late-late-night audience and Letterman (my opinion) hasn't been funny since he left NBC. I wonder how much of the late-night audience Jay is going to take from Conan/Letterman ~or~ if people are willing to tune-in at 10pm.Can't wait! I miss Jay...

The gambit is one reason NBC is using a larger venue than Leno has been accustomed to. Workers are busy customizing the soundstage once used by "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and the Disney Channel sitcom "Sonny With a Chance," both of which have moved out. Leno's 10 p.m. show will be taped on the NBC lot in Burbank on Stage 11, which is even larger than the 17,000 square-foot garage that houses Leno's car collection. The largest on the lot, Stage 11 is near Leno's former "Tonight Show" home at Stage 3, which is about 5,000 square feet smaller.

I really like Jay but I don't know about taking up 5 slots of Prime Time to do it.
Given the announcement of moving the news up 1/2 hour, you can say he is back to late night. At the very least, he is only taking up 2.5 hours, with local news taking up the other 2.5.
